Sabres post-season picture comes into focus

'In the first round of the playoffs, MSG has the rights to pre-empt any cable network coverage of the Sabres' games with its broadcast. It has exercised that right. Even though the Outdoor Life Network will be carrying two Sabres-Flyers games, on Saturday and April 28 respectively, in upstate New York the games will be seen on MSG. The only first round game that might go to another network is if there is a fifth game. NBC has the rights to that contest.'
